For any society or organization to function there must be rules and moral guidelines that govern community life. In the early church, there were many conversations about those rules and expectations for one another. As we have studied Paul's Letter to the Ephesians, we have explored just how difficult this process was (and still is). The former Jewish believers were called to live in community with former Gentile believers. So it is natural that questions arose regarding 'rules,' 'ethics,' and 'expected behaviors'. Our scripture reading this week comes from Ephesians 4:25-5:2 where the Apostle Paul gives them (and us) more than just a set of rules or judicial rulings. Paul gives us a 'holy cadence' or a 'holy rhythm' for the Christian community to live into. This rhythm invites us to first take outward situations inward, where the Holy Spirit helps us name, process, and work through a response, determining whether that response is words or actions. The promise of this cadence is community harmony. This Sunday we will explore where you are invited into this 'holy cadence' and how that might work itself out. Please join us for worship this Sunday at North Point Church in order to 'Belong', 'Grow', and 'Serve'.
